When one is sick advice is plenty, bu. not always the best. A good rule IS to accept only such medicines as have after long years of trial proved worthy of con- fdenee.

Watch the Insects.

Injurious insects demand attention
throughout the summer months. Look
for the borers near the base of young
fruit trees; if sawdust is seen to dro.
from hole in the bark, or if portion
of the bark is seen to be depressed, cut
out the borer. If the leaves of
currants and gooseberries are eaten by
''the werm," apply white hellebore at
once. Stir tablespoonful of the powder
in a pailful of water, and apply with
syringe. Repeat this after few days.
If later broods appear, continue the rem
edy, which Is very certain one. X
The greenish sling slug, which appears
on the leaves OF cherry, pear, and other
trees may be destroyed by applying air
Stacked lime Or wood ashes. This may
be busted upon the leaves by means of a
bag of coarse fabric, attached to pole
The insects attacking the grapevine this
month are mainly large caterpillars,
which are most readily picked by hand !;
the so-called 'thrips," which is properly
the "grape-vine leaf hopper" are not re-
lated to the thrips. 1t is a little whitish
insect which often rises in clouds when
the vines are disturbed. The best treat
ment is to go among the vines with
torches, gently beating them to disturb
the insects, which will at once fly towards
the light. x The first appearance
of grayisn spots on the undersides of the
vine indicates mildew, and flowers of
sulphur should be applied with bellows
made for the purpose. = x When
ever pear trees are attacked by blight
which comes without warning, cut away
every blighted portion and burn it.

animal that he intends to be his future
stockgetter, shows that it is matter of
serious import to him, and that all his
experience and skill is needed to enable
him to decide whether the specimen be-
fore him has the form, constitution
characteristics and milk marks in suffi-
cient degree to warrant him in giving it
the place of honor at the head of his
herd. If he makes up his mind shat the
animal is suitable, the price is then talk
ed of, but that is generally a secondary
consideration with the buyer, for the
animal is what he wants. the price will
soon be agreed upon, and a bargain con-
Guided. As every one is not an expert
at judging cattle, and as the outward
markings are not always a reliable guide
to the animals capabilities and virtues,
it is therefore of the utmost Importance
to have knowledge of the milking
qualities of the ancestors.

girl becomes a woman at the age of
twelve or thirteen years in Alaska, and l
have seen some such girls who were
really quite pretty. The best looking of
the young Alaskan girls are the Indians
who are found along the Stickeen River
Valley, or the Haidah girls of the Prince
of Wales Island. Here is a picture of
Julia, Stickeen River girl. She is dressed
in plain cotton garment, and she has
Turkish bath towel wound around her
head for ornament. There is a ring in
her nose, and she has pair of very soft,
beautiful eyes. Julia, like all Indian
girls here, dresses in long, plain cotton
undergarment when at home, and when
she goes out she has a gayly-colored
blanket which she throws about her
shoulders. The Haidah girls have rela-
lively fair skins, soft, dove-like eyes, very
small, symmetrical hands and small feet,
and their insteps are so high that the
water can run under them without touch
ing the sole. They are very passionate
and hot blooded, and they would be
graceful were it not for their pigeon
toed gait. They are really modest when
in the presence of white men, keep their
eyes nearly always on the ground, and
are forward in no way whatever. Some
of them have delicate peach-bloom
blush or blood 1nantling upon their
cheeks, and their complexion is that of
very dark brunette.

AN ARMLESS MAN.
A Wonderful Hero Who Harnessed Horses
With His Teeth.
Augusta Chronicle.

Augusta Chronicle.
Recently there died at Potsdam, New
York, wonderful mum. An accident de-
prived him of both arms, which were am
putated at the shoulder. He earned a liv-
ing by using his feet and his mouth in
stead of his arms. We are told that he
owned horse, of which he took the entire
care, harnessd it, fastened and unfastened
the buckles with his teeth, and drove with
the reins tied around his shoulders. Being
in need Of a wagon, he bought wheel and
axles and built box-huggy complete and
painted it. He went to the barn one winter
day and built cow stable, saving the tina
Der with his feet, and with the hammer
in one foot and holding the nail with the
other he nailed the boards on as we'll as
most men could do with their hands. He
dug well twelve feet deep on a farm in
the town ard stoned it himself. He could
move away hay by holding the fork un-
der his chin and letting it rest against
his shoulder. He could pick up potatoes
in the field as fast as man could dig
them He would dress himself, get his
meals, write his letters, and, in fact, do
almost anything that any man with two
hands could do. Many man with all
his faculties unin paired mourns be-
cause he can not get along, and yet this
armless brother made himself independ-
ent without arms or hands. He was like
the Crimean hero who, when his lower
limbs were shot away, wrote to the woman
he was engaged to marry releasing her.
She answered: 81 will marry you if you
have enough body remaining to contain
your noble soul"

CHAPTER XVIII.
WE ABANDON HOPE.


can give no adequate description OF the
horrors Of the night which followed. Merci-
fully they were to some extent mtigated by
sleep, for even in such position as ours,
wearied nature will still sometimes assert
itself But l, at any rate, found it impossi-
bic to sleep much. Putting aside the terri
flying thought Of our impending doom-for
the braveSt man on earth might well quail
from such fate as awaited us, and L never
had any great pretensons to be brave-the
silence Itself was too great to allow of it.
And then the irony of the situation forced
itself upon me. There around us lay treas
ures enough to pay off moderate national
debt or to build fleet of iron-clads, and
yet we would gladly have bartered them all
for the fainteSt chance of escape. Soon,
doubtless, we should be glad to exchange
them for bit of food or a cup of water, and,
after that, even for the privilege of a speedy
close to our sutferings Truly wealth, which
men spend all their lives in acquiring, II
',alnaioss thing at tho last.-----
And so the night wore on.
Good" said Sir Henry's voice at la4,
and it sounded awful In the intense stiffness,
''how many matches have you in the boxr'
Eight, Curtis"
Strike one, and let us see the time"
He did so, and in contrast to the dense
darkness the flame nearly blinded US. It
was five o'clock by my watch. The beauti-
full dawn was now blushing on the snow
wreaths far over our heads, and the breeze
would be stirring the night misS in the hol-
lows.

liable to occur at calving time with al
most any COW, the more light there can
be had on the subject the better. This
method of curing the disease is practiced
In Germany. L. IS worth remembering
and trying:
Out of three COWS that were attacked
by the fever two were very seriously ill.
In the treatment of one of those that
fell sick in the afternoon, applications
of ice on the head, frequent injections
of cold water, four cathartic powders,
and every two hours a decoction made
of one ounce of camomile flowers, with
the addition of two tablespoonful of
ether, were employed during the night.
The COW lay on her side for hours and
looked very miserable. In the morning
of the next day the loins were covered
with blankets, and these rubbed, Or rather
ironed, with very hot irons. This process
was continued for about three hours,
after which the COW stood up and gave
about two and a half quarts of milk. She
was restored to health the next day.
One of the other COWS was also very
seriously ill. She was treated in the
same way, with the exception that the
ironing was continued from morning till
noon, and again from 2 o'clock to
O'Clock p. m. At 5 o'clock she was still
on her side, but at o'clock she got up
without assistance and commenced eat
ing straw.
The third COW was not so dangerously
affected, but still was unable to stand.
Her case was relieved after a few hours
ironing.
